Mr George, Don't Be So Arrogant novel Chapter 44

In her heart, she wished badly that Hendrix would come here and take it on with Lydia, but then she remembered that she just had a fight with her, and if anything happened to Lydia now, it wouldn't do any good to anyone of them.

It wasn't that she felt sorry for Lydia, she just really wanted to have a peace for a while, so Riley made a decision.

She took out her phone, hesitated for a little, but then finally dialed Euan's number. She held her phone with the big screen in her hands, and used all of her strength, as if she wanted to meld this device in her hand.

It only rang three times before the line was connected, she didn't have the energy to wonder why it was so fast, and of course, she neither had the time for it.

After Euan picked the call, she heard his cold voice, "What is it?"

She was so looking forward to hear his voice, even if it was as simple as that, even if it was simply a few words that sounded like it was about work, in her ears, it was as if his voice carried his breath and heart beat, it wasn't simply his voice that she was hearing, it was a living Euan.

In just those few seconds, she had a lot of thoughts going on, the more she thought, the more she felt that she was useless, even at this time, she was still thinking about him.

In the presidential office of MBK, Euan was holding a file with his long fingers, and stopped flipping through it, he waited patiently for Riley to speak again.

It was quiet for a long time, and Riley thought that he hung up, she tilted her head and saw that the screen was still lit up, her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly picked up the topic from before, "Hendrix called me, he said that he saw the news, and want to come to the hospital to give Lydia a lecture, if you stop him now, it might still be in time."

Euan's brows were slightly knitted, his voice sounded like a cello as he spoke, and he flipped another page in his files again, "You are still in the hospital?"

He asked her in return, it had nothing to do with what she was talking about, but she was not immune to his tone, she had already offended him today, she couldn't allow it to happen again.

"Yes, I am still here..."

"Go home right now."

He was always like that, if he had made a decision, he wouldn't care about any other opinion, and exactly this dominant part of him made everyone listen to him.

"Are you even listening to what I am saying?" Hendrix is coming to the hospital looking for trouble with Lydia, if you don't want your child's mother to be hurt, you should try to stop him now."

Riley was getting anxious, after she finished her speech, she felt that she put too much power in it, she almost broke her phone, the screen that was on her cheek was hot enough to burn her.

Euan humphed coldly, "Are you worried about Lydia or about Hendrix? You better be worried about Lydia, if I find out that there is more to that, you know what I will do."

Riley's throat narrowed, she swallowed hard, "There is nothing between me and Hendrix."

"Have you rested well? Are you feeling better?"

Before she could hang up the phone, William suddenly came! He didn't notice that Riley was on the phone, so as soon as he entered the room, he asked her.

Euan already heard that the door was opened, and then there was a sound of keys rattling. Clearly, Riley was with a man, and that man opened the door himself!

She said she was in the hospital?

So this man, must be that doctor!

Riley was flurried, she pressed on her screen, and nodded towards William, then she lowered her head to look again, but Euan had already hung up.

Oh God, he must have heard that, this is going to bring her more trouble again.

She couldn't think about it, she will find a way when it happens.

William saw that she hurriedly hung up the phone, and knew that there was nobody who could make her so nervous apart from Euan.

William smiled at her gently, and pretended not to know anything, "How are you feeling? Is it better?"

Riley nodded her head, "I am alright, thank you for taking me in, but I gotta go now."

As she said so, she went to the bedroom to grab her jacket, then she threw it on her shoulders. She suddenly really wanted to leave this place, no matter if Euan misunderstood her, or if he didn't even bother about it. In her heart she just hoped that he won't feel more dislike towards her because of her actions.

William didn't try to keep her any longer, he laughed at himself, "I guess I am not attractive enough, I can't keep you here. I will send you back."

After Euan hung up the phone, he was furious, he threw himself into this chair, and his back crashed into the leather.

Then, he got up and took his jacket and car keys, and walked out of his office, Elijah wanted to come in to report some work to him, but before he could say anything, Euan said, "Tell me later."

Elijah stood there quite stunned as he watched him leave, this atmosphere was very familiar to him, only when he had problems with his wife, he would get so mad.

Euan quickly went to his car, turned the key, and at the same time, dialed Hendrix's number.

"No matter what you are trying to do, you have to stop right now."

Hendrix was on the way to the hospital in high speed, as he knitted his brows, "Euan, do you allow Lydia to mock your wife like that? She is your wife, who is Lydia? Why do you want to take her side?"

"And who do you think you are? The brother-in-law helps his sister-in-law? This excuse sounds very interesting!"

Hendrix paused for a little, he didn't even think that much, he just didn't want Lydia to keep mocking her, and he also couldn't stand that his brother was taking Lydia and not Riley's side.

"Euan..."

"Go home, right now!"

"But Euan, Riley, she must feel really bad inside."

He felt bad inside too, but still, he lowered his speed, bit his teeth, he wished he could beat Lydia to death without thinking about any consequences.

Euan's cold voice had a unique kind of strength, he slowly but strongly reminded him, "Hendrix, you are over the line, do I really need to explain it to you?"

Hendrix was speechless.

After hanging up the phone, Euan sped up.
